In true Ladybird fashion, there are delightfully nostalgic, full-page colour illustrations on
every other page.

The dictionary was clearly prized by its previous owner, with 'love bites' being present on the
front and rear boards. The spine is chipped and rubbed, and has a 5 mm (0.2") loss on the tail
(see image). Despite its poor external condition, the book is actually in rather good order
inside. Some pages are lightly creased, yet remain clean and are free from any foxing,
scribbling, or other marking. The binding is also surprisingly tight.

Although this is a rare book, the price has been adjusted on account of its external condition.
